Review of Avengers: Endgame (2019) by Thwompthing — 02 May 2019

Not even close to being on Infinity War's level. I went to a late show and nearly dozed off a dozen or so times. I had to struggle to stay awake for the first 2 hours, literally. It was that boring.

Also a ton of plot holes in this film. Out of the 50% of everything that Thanos destroyed in the previous film, Ant-man is the only one to return in the beginning, because of some time travel quantum physics thing that is poorly explained, in which Iron Man discovers how to create time travel and isn't explained how, whatsoever.

He just magically creates it in his home with Pepper Pots. Then there's the fact that Thor is a laughable and pathetic, depressed drunk who makes no contribution at all, and Banner Hulk is just awful.

Go into this film expecting a lot of boring nothingness for the first 90 minutes and you will find it maybe enjoyable. Now the reason I give it a solid 7 after all this complaining, is that the final act of the movie is very engaging and enjoyable at least.

The action in the Avengers films is always great, and even though this final chapter had very little action until the end, it was good enough to make the film overall GOOD. Just don't expect anything like the greatness that was Infinity War.
